Not a lot to sat right now. I was worried a little because of my tight hamstring issues, but that ened up not being the only issue. Greg and I up there and it was a less organized start to say the least. Not enough potties and the lines were long! Didn't get a good wam up, infact I was lucky to get .25 miles before the race, which is bad for me since it takes me a while to get going. I started off tight and slower, but started hitting 5:50s and averaged close to that all the way down and out of the canyon. It was a very rolling course! Up and dow and up and down the whole way. Not my favorite thing since I am a rhythm runner. At just after 9 miles me and aother guy got sent straight on the old course instead of turning left. A car came after me and told me to turn around, the other guy kept going. I turned around and only lost about 3 minutes. Geg was just turning so I ran with him and vented and then eventually pulled away a bit, but never got going and didn't catch half the people that got ahead of me from my missing the turn. Momentum gone! Anyway I salaved a 1:20:09 still with a jacked up hammy and 3 minute wrong way venture.
Not a bad race, but not well done eithe. The awards took forever! Ben killed it today and PR'd big on a not very fast course. Riley won with an impressive as usual race and Just had a solid 4th place. Glad to see guys like that do well. Greg ran 1:21 and did great too!
